Technical developments after the industrialization process, democratization, increasing acceptance of secularism, and an increasingly widespread economic capitalist perspective, created values such as extreme competitiveness and globalization and influenced fundamental changes of modern society. In this atmosphere, the modern worker has to adopt a more positivist working style that is spiritually evacuated. This new working life has increased the need for a more spiritual work environment, which opens up space for the individuality of the employees. In this study, we will present the results of the field research conducted on 190 academicians and the conceptual background of the workplace spirituality-performance relationship.

Öz

Sanayileşme süreci sonrasında gerçekleşen teknik gelişmeler, demokratikleşme, sekülerliğin giderek kabul görmesi ve ekonomik anlamda gitgide yaygınlaşan kapitalist bakış açısı, aşırı rekabetçilik ve küreselleşme gibi değerleri yaratmış ve modern toplumun köklü bir şekilde değişiminde etkili olmuştur.Bu atmosferde modern çalışan da manevi olarak içi boşaltılmış fazla pozitivist bir çalışma tarzını benimsemek durumunda bırakmıştır. Bu yeni çalışma hayatı, işyeri ruhsallığını benimseyen yani çalışanların bireyselliklerine alan açan daha spiritüel bir iş ortamına olan ihtiyacı arttırmıştır. Bu çalışmada işyeri ruhsallığının rol içi ve rol ötesi performans üzerindeki olası etkilerini incelemek amacıyla 190 akademisyen üzerinde yapılan araştırmanın sonuçları ve bu ilişkinin kavramsal arka planını sunulacaktır.
